I too assumed that the media aired what ever they wanted without much thought about ethics. It was good to hear from Mr. Day that they do consider the ethical consequences prior to airing the stories. Vic mentioned in his blog that there is a gray area when it comes to making a decision on whether or not to run a particular story. For many people there is no gray area, but for the media there is because they are considering all of the stake holders. Very well put Vic.
I am glad Vic mentioned the freedom of press that we enjoy in America. Often times we take that right for granted. Some people are responsible while others abuse this right.
